RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- After Tuesday's primary runoff, four men advanced to the fall general election.

In the 44th State Senate District, Republican David Curtis defeated incumbent Chris Carney. Curtis will face Democrat Ross Bulla in the fall. Carney was the only incumbent senator involved in a runoff.

Democrat Robert B. Clark III beat Billy King in the 21st State Senate District. He faces no Republican challenger.

Jeff Tarte secured the 41st State Senate District and he also faces no November challenger. The redrawn Mecklenburg district drew a crowded GOP primary field.
